Epson Stylus Photo TX710W Delivers Excellent Photo Quality

Those looking to achieve excellent photo quality when using printer ink should consider the Epson Stylus Photo TX710W.

This is according to a review of the printer by cnet Australia's Alexandra Savvides, who said the TX710W takes "the black plastic pastiche to a new level".

"This multifunction can print, scan and copy and thanks to the photo tag, is somewhat of a photo-horse, using six ink cartridges," the reviewer commented.

The TX710W is identical in size to its TX700W predecessor - 44cm across and 38cm deep - and weighs 9kg.

It features a 2.5-inch display screen, which is attached to a panel and pivots out from the printer body. It accommodates a number of commands which can be "a little overwhelming at first", but once mastered, the benefits are numerous.

If quick photo processing is an important consideration, then the TX710W may be an excellent choice - a 10 x 15cm borderless photo takes between 22 and 29 seconds to print.

Last month, Epson announced the launch of its Perfection V600 Photo scanner, which has the ability to scan, restore and archive and a number of films and prints.
